What does this mean in the H-T-P test?

When they asked me to draw a person, I just started to draw a man, but the therapist asked what it was because it looked kind of girly. I just smiled and erased the eyelashes and cut his hair off LOL. It was a normal drawing, with clothes (shirt, pants, shoes, belt), it had a neck. BUT, his hands were inside his pants' pockets. What does that mean? Does this have to do with sexual orientation?





The tree was pretty normal I think, really simple...but I draw apples on it. Does it mean somehing?





The House it's too long to explain here.





Thanks! :)

What does this mean in the H-T-P test?
I thought this test went out many years ago. It is no longer used in any large psychiatric hospital or clinic I know. Do not try to read too much into it.
Reply:well I think it meens that they are shy or bashful
Reply:I find it interesting that you were asked to draw a person but drew, a person, a tree AND a house....... How do you get all three things out of "Draw a person" ??
